Shipping Information

We offer free Media Mail shipping (2-9 business days in transit) for U.S. customers (unfortunately postal rate increases necessitate excluding HI and AK), as well as USPS priority mail (2-3 business days), and International USPS service (transit times may vary). Shipping times are estimates provided by the post office, but are not guaranteed. UPS and Fed-Ex may be available upon request. Please email us with shipping questions or requests at tachyon [@] tachyonpublications.com.
